The All Progressives Congress, APC youth renaissance group has described Peter Okoye of the P-square fame as disrespectful. This comes after Peter responded to Minister Of Information, Lai Mohammed’s recent declaration about banning music videos outside Nigeria. Arrest Psquare for calling FG ‘ndi ala’ – APC tells DSS.
In his response, Peter said he was ashamed to be called a Nigerian and that he was thinking of a new nationality. His brother, Paul had earlier responded, saying soon the FG will show them how and which style to use ‘kpakam’ their wives. Lol. Epic!

But in a statement signed by the group’s national secretary, Mr Collins Edwin, the group fired a stinker at Peter for insulting the Federal government of Nigeria.
The statement read in full: “We read the scurrilous remarks credited to Mr Peter Okoye of the Psquare group against the Federal Government’s job-saving policy in the entertainment industry with great anger and vexation. Least of all persons to make scathing remark against the government is the Psquare group which the local content policy of the Federal Government dusted-up from the valley of obscurity.

“Where was Peter Okoye or Psquare brand in 1999 when foreign music dominated our airwaves? If not for the government policy which mandated all broadcast stations in Nigeria to pay attention to Nigerian music by playing 95 percent of Nigerian songs every day, would Peter Okoye or Psquare be known to anybody in Nigeria today? Or would they have competed with better American music which dominated our airwaves then?
“After the government have used its policy to brush them up from nothing to something; instead of giving opportunity to other people, they are taking Nigerian jobs to foreign countries through the shooting of music videos abroad.
“Now that government have intervened to raise great and better entertainers again, Peter Okoye has the gut to insult the entire Federal Government by calling our great leaders ‘Ndi Ala’ which means mad and stupid people. How dare you say that Psquare?
“We, therefore, urge the security agencies in the country to arrest Mr Peter Okoye for disrespecting our government and bringing it to a disrepute.
